[@FotisNakos]

What Lizzie is talking about at 12:45 is exactly what I've been going through the past month. I know it's not the topic of this video but her words hit a spot and although I have achieved a few goals since I started professional photography I feel like I'm back at 0. Maybe it's the quarantine, maybe it's lack of inspiration, maybe I got into it too much - I don't know. But hearing these words from Lizzie and getting a positive react from Peter gives me comfort into knowing that I'm not alone in this.

[@thechrishau]

Hey Lizzie! Can you sell your next photo for 6.5 million? That would be great haha.

[@jojo890xd4]

I’d cop

[@eugeniusro]

Of course she didn't use Shutterstok to sell the photo :), there he receives only 10 cents

@@Drobek6I wouldn’t say it’s an American thing, it’s just a photography thing. Photography’s a very expensive thing to do as just a hobby. As a profession though, it’s easier to justify the expenses.

I am no Peter but... share your work, use proper hashtags, let everybody know you do it... email samples of your work to studios or professionals that might need your service... one will hire you eventually... when that one person gives you the opportunity make sure you over deliver and then do it again..the word will spread and you will start having more consistent work...

Peter, you inspire me a lot. I guess I have watched almost each of your videos. You inspired me into photography. My first gig of documentary photography was inspired by you. After a long time of being off photography and I begin to question if I'm really good at this thing, then I watch your video again and boom I feel alive and feel like this is meant for me. By the way, I never trusted my photography skills, my first gig was offered to me by a friend who actually saw my shots and thought they were exceptional, he literally believed in me more than myself. I still have that little doubt about myself. After watching this video, now I am planning on saving monthly for 5 months to buy myself a personal camera. Thanks Peter🙌🙌
